Electroacupuncture may adjust the bioelectric state of the tissues in painful sites through electrical characteristic structural units (acupoints), thereby exerting analgesic effect. The treatment of diseases with electroacupuncture results from the interaction between the external electric field and the electrical properties of acupoint tissues. Therefore, the state of biological tissues and the parameters of electroacupuncture all affect the therapeutic effect. Keywords: analgesia; bioelectricity; electric characteristics of acupoints; electroacupuncture. PMID: 38191165 DOI: 10.13703/j.0255-2930.20230413-0001
